The Company’s Prospectus contains a detailed independent geological assessment of these tenements. The Company completed the acquisition of WA exploration licences E70/4824, E70/4825, E70/4903 E70/4906, E70/4811, E70/4812, E66/95, E70/4972 and E09/2234. An extensive independent geological review is contained in the Company’s Prospectus.

Graphite Outcrop - Maniry Project, Madagascar

Mineralogical Report During the quarter, BlackEarth received a mineralogical report (Report or Townend) dated 31 January 2018 undertaken by Townend Mineralogy Laboratory on samples taken from the Company’s Maniry graphite project in southern Madagascar. Polished sections were reviewed by Townend Mineralogy Laboratory from 8 diamond core samples taken from the Razafy, Ivan, Haja and Fita areas in the Maniry graphite project where the Company has defined 34 large scale zones of prominently outcropping highly predictable graphite mineralisation over an area of 6.5km x

BlackEarth Minerals NL – Quarterly Activities Report March 2018

2.5km; the northern region of the Maniry project is pictured in Figure 1 (Also see Tables 1 & 2 and Appendix 1 for further detail).

The Report reviewed a number of prospects at Maniry concludes:

• “Graphite is a significant mineral in all samples and its habit, typically reflects the nature of the associated gangue” (kaolin/clay).

• “As a result of the close association with “kaolin’, much of the graphite has extreme dimensions, lengths frequently > 500 micron”.

• “Contamination of the graphite otherwise is limited to pyrite as margins and within cleavages in the totally fresh drill core, and close marginal rather than internal association with goethite in several altered others.”

Given the current global shortfall in large flake supplies, these results are seen as very encouraging.

• Jumbo flake sized graphite (>300micron) typically attracts a significant price premium over fine to large

flaked concentrates.

• The lack of contaminants inside the flakes also suggests the potential for high purity graphite

production which is used in higher value end products (eg Li-ion batteries).

• This is seen as a key component in attracting product sales.

Fig 2a: Photomicrograph of Razafy (Fresh) Sample Fig 2b: Photomicrograph of Razafy (Fresh) Sample Drilling, which commenced in March 2018, will initially focus on the Razafy area where previous diamond drilling and trenching identified high grade near surface mineralisation. The Report issued to BlackEarth, analysed both weathered and fresh samples. The Report’s findings highlighted Razafy as having:

• Coarse inclusion-free flakes with long dimensions frequently in excess of 500 micron and occasionally

a millimetre (weathered material);

• Graphite flakes commonly exceeding 100 micron in width (weathered material); and

• Graphite occurrence related to the banding lithology (clay, quartz and dominant quartz). In feldspar

rich areas, graphite flakes often exceed 400 micron while in clay rich bands, graphite is often in excess

of 500 microns in length (fresh material – see Figures 2a & 2b above).

BlackEarth Commences Drilling BlackEarth commenced its diamond drilling program at the Company’s 100% owned Maniry Graphite Project, Madagascar during the quarter as planned. The drilling is being completed by respected local drilling contractor, Orezone Drilling Madagascar SARL (Orezone). A photograph of core recovered is shown at Figure 3.

From commencement of drilling on 2 March 2018 to 31 March 2018, a total of 1,074 metres has been drilled and a total of 15 holes has been completed. See Figure 4 below which outlines location of completed drill holes as well as proposed holes yet to be drilled. The Company has focused its initial diamond drilling within the Maniry Graphite Project on the high priority Razafy Prospect. This will be followed up with infill drilling at the Haja Prospect which lies approximately 2km south of Razafy. Both of these prospects fall within the large exploration lease PR39751.

Figure 4 - Location of Razafy Drill Holes completed and planned

The Razafy Prospect was originally identified through regional mapping and rock-chip sampling over at least 1.6km, encompassing six distinct graphite lenses. The Haja Prospect consists of extensive outcropping graphite mineralisation, which has previously been mapped and sampled over a strike length of approximately 800m and a width of up to 275m. Both prospects are deemed highly prospective based on results from previous trenching and diamond drilling (refer Replacement Prospectus dated 24 November 2017). The Company’s geological consultant, Omni-Geox has been logging these drill holes from commencement and has prepared sections (Figures 5 & 6). BEM also currently anticipates that assay results should be available from the week commencing 14 May 2018. The Company has transported 800kg of sample to Antananarivo for sample preparation prior to sending the samples off shore for assay. The drill program has been designed to enable the Company to define a maiden JORC Resource, initially at Razafy, currently targeted for mid-2018.

ABOUT BLACKEARTH MINERALS NL

BlackEarth Minerals NL (ASX: BEM) (“Company”) is an ASX listed company focused on the exploration and

development of its 100% owned Madagascan and Western Australian graphite projects.

The location of the Company’s graphite projects: Madagascar (Maniry & Ianapera - above), Western Australia

(Yalbra, Northern Gully, Greenhills & Donnelly River - left)

The Company’s Madagascan projects consist of two primary exploration areas: the main Maniry project ("Maniry") in the south, and the Ianapera project ("Ianapera") in the north. Maniry is highly prospective for large-scale, high-quality graphite deposits and is currently at an advanced evaluation stage pending additional work to establish an initial resource, which is currently expected to be completed by mid-2018. Results, from samples taken within 50m of surface, have been received and include 10m at 10.2% TGC, 12m at 11.6% TGC and 14m at 11.3% TGC, as disclosed in the Company’s Replacement Prospectus dated 24 November 2017.

Ianapera is located within 10 km of NextSource Material Inc’s (TSX: NEXT) Molo graphite deposit. It consists of a series of high-grade outcrops, up to 800m long and 30m wide, of graphite mineralisation within a broader graphite trend. These high-grade (15%+ TGC), near-surface exposures of graphite mineralisation lie over the top of a large conductive body, which indicates the potential presence of a large graphitic mineralised system.

The Company’s Western Australian graphite assets include project areas that have been partially explored by a number of companies in the past, with encouraging results reported from several locations. The Company researched graphite data via the extensive historical Western Australian Mineral Exploration (WAMEX) database, which has already led to the identification of targets which will be the focus of initial exploration activities.

JORC Code, 2012 Edition – Table 1 report template Section 1 Sampling Techniques and Data (Criteria in this section apply to all succeeding sections.) Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary

Sampling techniques

· Nature and quality of sampling (eg cut channels, random chips, or specific specialised industry standard measurement tools appropriate to the minerals under investigation, such as down hole gamma sondes, or handheld XRF instruments, etc). These examples should not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling.

Diamond drilling program - Sampling will consist of 2m composite samples of quarter core. Samples will be cut using a diamond blade core saw. Duplicate samples will be collected every 20th sample for QAQC purposes. Sampling is considered to be comprehensive and representative. Remaining core was retained as a permeant reference. Assaying technique is still to be determined.

· Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representivity and the appropriate calibration of any measurement tools or systems used.

· Aspects of the determination of mineralisation that are Material to the Public Report.

· In cases where ‘industry standard’ work has been done this would be relatively simple (eg ‘reverse circulation drilling was used to obtain 1 m samples from which 3 kg was pulverised to produce a 30 g charge for fire assay’). In other cases more explanation may be required, such as where there is coarse gold that has inherent sampling problems. Unusual commodities or mineralisation types (eg submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of detailed information.

Drilling techniques

· Drill type (eg core, reverse circulation, open-hole hammer, rotary air blast, auger, Bangka, sonic, etc) and details (eg core diameter, triple or standard tube, depth of diamond tails, face-sampling bit or other type, whether core is oriented and if so, by what method, etc).

Diamond drilling. Core size is HQ and NQ typically in 0.5-1.5m runs. Core from a select number of holes will be orientated.

Drill sample recovery

· Method of recording and assessing core and chip sample recoveries and results assessed.

Core recovery is routinely recorded every metre by a trained geologist.

· Measures taken to maximise sample recovery and ensure representative nature of the samples.

· Whether a relationship exists between sample recovery and grade and whether sample bias may have occurred due to preferential loss/gain of fine/coarse material.

Logging · Whether core and chip samples have been geologically and geotechnically logged to a level of detail to support appropriate

All holes are logged by a qualified and experienced geologist. All logging included

descriptions of geotechnical, mineralisation, structural and lithological aspects of the core and was digitally recorded using an industry standard code system. Core is formally photographed. Data collected offers sufficient detail for the purpose of interpretation and further studies.

· Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative in nature. Core (or costean, channel, etc) photography.

· The total length and percentage of the relevant intersections logged.

Sub-sampling techniques and sample preparation

· If core, whether cut or sawn and whether quarter, half or all core taken.

Quarter core will be cut using a diamond core saw and collected for assay. 2 metre composite sampling are deemed to be comprehensive and representative for the style/type of mineralisation under investigation. Duplicate samples are taken (remaining quarter core) every 20th sample for QAQC purposes

· If non-core, whether riffled, tube sampled, rotary split, etc and whether sampled wet or dry.

· For all sample types, the nature, quality and appropriateness of the sample preparation technique.

· Quality control procedures adopted for all sub-sampling stages to maximise representivity of samples.

· Measures taken to ensure that the sampling is representative of the in situ material collected, including for instance results for field duplicate/second-half sampling.

· Whether sample sizes are appropriate to the grain size of the material being sampled.

Quality of assay data and laboratory tests

· The nature, quality and appropriateness of the assaying and laboratory procedures used and whether the technique is considered partial or total.

Assaying details are still to be confirmed at this point, these will be detailed once assay results are received.

· For geophysical tools, spectrometers, handheld XRF instruments, etc, the parameters used in determining the analysis including instrument make and model, reading times, calibrations factors applied and their derivation, etc.

· Nature of quality control procedures adopted (eg standards, blanks, duplicates, external laboratory checks) and whether acceptable levels of accuracy (ie lack of bias) and precision have been established.

Verification of sampling and assaying

· The verification of significant intersections by either independent or alternative company personnel.

No holes are twinned at this stage. Data is digitally stored off site.

· The use of twinned holes.

· Documentation of primary data, data entry procedures, data verification, data storage (physical and electronic) protocols.

· Discuss any adjustment to assay data.

Location of data points

· Accuracy and quality of surveys used to locate drill holes (collar and down-hole surveys), trenches, mine workings and other locations used in Mineral Resource estimation.

All XYZ surveying was collected using a handheld Garmin GPS accurate to ±4m. Projection and Grid system used: UTM (WGS84) Z38S. At the end of the program holes will be recorded using a DGPS (accurate to 10cm)

· Specification of the grid system used.

· Quality and adequacy of topographic control.

· Data spacing for reporting of Exploration Results. NA

y


Data spacing and distribution

· Whether the data spacing and distribution is sufficient to establish the degree of geological and grade continuity appropriate for the Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve estimation procedure(s) and classifications applied.

· Whether sample compositing has been applied.

Orientation of data in relation to geological structure

· Whether the orientation of sampling achieves unbiased sampling of possible structures and the extent to which this is known, considering the deposit type.

The orientation of the drilling is not expected to introduce sampling bias. Most drill holes have intersected the mineralisation at near perpendicular angles to strike.

· If the relationship between the drilling orientation and the orientation of key mineralised structures is considered to have introduced a sampling bias, this should be assessed and reported if material.

Sample security · The measures taken to ensure sample security.

Samples are cut and sampled on site before being transported to the company sample preparation facility in Antananarivo for preparation. Samples will then be freighted by DHL to the awarded laboratory for assay. It is reasoned that the samples will be under sufficient security.

Audits or reviews · The results of any audits or reviews of sampling techniques and data.

Section 2 Reporting of Exploration Results (Criteria listed in the preceding section also apply to this section.)

Criteria JORC Code explanation Commentary

Mineral tenement and land tenure status

· Type, reference name/number, location and ownership including agreements or material issues with third parties such as joint ventures, partnerships, overriding royalties, native title interests, historical sites, wilderness or national park and environmental settings.

Work was undertaken upon permits 5394 & 3432 • The tenements are located within the inland South West of Madagascar approximately centred on the townships of Fotradrevo and Ampanihy. • Tenements are held 100% by Mada Aust Ltd. A wholly owned subsidiary of Black Earth Minerals Ltd. • No overriding royalties are in place • There is no native title agreement required • Tenure does not coincide with any historical sites or national parkland • Semi-arid, thinly vegetated, relatively flat to low lying hills with sub-cropping rock. • Tenements are currently secure and in good standing.

· The security of the tenure held at the time of reporting along with any known impediments to obtaining a licence to operate in the area. For

Exploration done by other parties

· Acknowledgment and appraisal of exploration by other parties.

Regional mapping by BRGM, Historical diamond drilling and trenching by Malagasy Minerals Ltd. (2014-2016)

Geology · Deposit type, geological setting and style of mineralisation.

The project overlies a prominent 20km wide zone consisting of a folded assemblage of graphite and quartz-feldspar schists (<60% graphite), quartzite and marble units, with lesser intercalated amphibolite and leucogneiss. This zone, termed the Ampanihy Belt is a core component of the Neoproterozoic Graphite System. The belt is interpreted as a ductile shear zone accreted from rocks of volcanic and sedimentary origins.

Drill hole Information

· A summary of all information material to the understanding of the exploration results including a tabulation of the following information for all Material drill holes:

Refer to table within text

o easting and northing of the drill hole collar

o elevation or RL (Reduced Level – elevation above sea level in metres) of the drill hole collar

o dip and azimuth of the hole

o down hole length and interception depth

o hole length.

· If the exclusion of this information is justified on the basis that the information is not Material and this exclusion does not detract from the understanding of the report, the Competent Person should clearly explain why this is the case.

Data aggregation methods

· In reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging techniques, maximum and/or minimum grade truncations (eg cutting of high grades) and cut-off grades are usually Material and should be stated.

NA

· Where aggregate intercepts incorporate short lengths of high grade results and longer lengths of low grade results, the procedure used for such aggregation should be stated and some typical examples of such aggregations should be shown in detail.

· The assumptions used for any reporting of metal equivalent values should be clearly stated.

Relationship between mineralisation widths and intercept lengths

· These relationships are particularly important in the reporting of Exploration Results.

NA

· If the geometry of the mineralisation with respect to the drill hole angle is known, its nature should be reported.

· If it is not known and only the down hole lengths are reported, there should be a clear statement to this effect (eg ‘down hole length, true width not known’).

Diagrams

· Appropriate maps and sections (with scales) and tabulations of intercepts should be included for any significant discovery being reported These should include, but not be limited to a plan view of drill hole collar locations and appropriate sectional views.

Refer to figures within text

Balanced reporting

· Where comprehensive reporting of all Exploration Results is not practicable, representative reporting of both low and high grades and/or widths should be practiced to avoid misleading reporting of Exploration Results.

NA

Other substantive exploration data

· Other exploration data, if meaningful and material, should be reported including (but not limited to): geological observations; geophysical survey results; geochemical survey results; bulk samples – size and method of treatment; metallurgical test results; bulk density, groundwater, geotechnical and rock characteristics; potential deleterious or contaminating substances.

Refer to BEM Prospectus.

Further work

· The nature and scale of planned further work (eg tests for lateral extensions or depth extensions or large-scale step-out drilling).

All assay results to be received.

· Diagrams clearly highlighting the areas of possible extensions, including the main geological interpretations and future drilling areas, provided this information is not commercially sensitive.
